Our popular Bellingen Business Social Event:
Location: The Loyal Bellingen Golf Club
Let’s celebrate the new ownership of the Golf Club, meet the team and hear what is planned for this beautiful property and venue. And yes, the Loyal Bellingen Golf Club is now a Member of our Chamber.
We are very honoured to welcome Superintendent Joanne Schultz APM of the Coffs /Clarence Police District and her team to our event. She shall talk about the Police
work in the area, concerns raised by business owners and what is being done about those.
(very important for everyone no doubt)
Ben Lewis will give us the latest on the upcoming River Sound Festival, which is
expected to bring great musical talent to our Shire and an influx of thousands of visitors.
We very much look forward to seeing you on the 11th of May, promising to be a fun event once again (bring your artistic talentJ and getting updated on the latest.
Please pre- register on QR code below so we may have sufficient food for everyone.
Chamber Member: Loyal Golf Club
T
his iconic gathering spot has been revived by Luke, Matt and their team! Thank you.
Founded by Luke Sullivan and Matt Rabbidge, The Mosey on Inn Group has officially relaunched the Loyal Bellingen Golf Club, marking a new chapter for one of the region’s long-standing community venues.
The Northern Rivers–based hospitality group is focused on revitalising regional pubs, restaurants, and community spaces. Their approach blends traditional pub culture with contemporary food, beverages, and live music, creating venues that feel both familiar and refreshed.
They prioritise honouring the local community first, while also building destinations that attract visitors from beyond the region.
Following a period of closure, the golf club has been thoughtfully revived with a clear focus on reconnecting locals and visitors through golf, food, music, and relaxed hospitality.
